I think what many people forget is that Arthas was just a powerful Death Knight, when he became the Lich King he wasn't Arthas anymore.
So I think Garrosh actually has a good chance against just the Death Knight Arthas. Heck, most of the time Arthas was actually losing powers due to the crack in the Lich King's prison.

I'd put my money on Garrosh for sure.

Anyone who says easy victory for Arthas just doesn't know his lore, Arthas isn't the Lich King. He ceased to be Arthas when he put on the Helm of Command.

Death Knight Arthas would be comparable to a more powerful version of Baron Rivendare, so for anyone who doesn't know the lore, who do you think would win out of Baron Rivendare or Garrosh? I know the answer.

Have you seen the wrath of the lich king cinematic??? If so, did you understand it???

I'm not sure how the Garrosh fight goes, but weren't the players able to defeat a sha infused Garrosh all by themselves? Without any NPC help? In the Lich King battle, he could easily one shot everyone when he liked too, and we needed both Tirion and Terenas to CC him.

And people seem to forget that Arthas was able to defeat both Kael and Illidan, shortly after each other. He defeated Kael first, became very exhausted and yet he was still able to defeat Illidan (even kill him if he liked too). And I'm pretty sure Illidan would crush Garrosh badly.

Not sure how powerfull paladin Arthas was, but I doubt Garrosh (around that time) would've been any stronger. He's still a hotheaded ''derp smash them!'' idiot.

Arthas overcame impossible odds and freed himself from outside influences. The mere mention of his name brought fear and anger into all of the people who heard it, and still does after his death.

Who is scarier? Arthas, the Lich King. The man who defended Lorderon, the largest kingdom of humans, then betrayed his own people and destroyed it, defeated Illidan, freed the Lich King, merged with the Lich King, freed himself from the Lich King, attacked the Alliance and Horde in their own cities, and single handedly tricked Tirion Fordring, the greatest paladin in the world, to spoon feed him the strongest troops he had. The only reason we beat Arthas was dumb luck.

Garrosh, on the other hand? A crybaby from the Outlands who needed a pep talk from Thrall to stop cutting his wrists. After that, he became an arrogant prick who's greatest achievement was hoarding his troops in Orgrimmar waiting for an attack, only to be defeated without any external aid from an OP lore character... Whether he had a boost from an Old God or not, we were still able to defeat him. Lore wise, The Lich King would trample us even now. He could kill us instantly if he wants, and to top it off, bend us to his will to boot.

Arthas wins, because he is a badass.

Arthas was manipulated by the LK since the beginning. He was overwhelm by his ambitious and vengefulness.
